Invitation to Serve - St. Peter’s United Church of Christ has been a welcoming and faithful presence on the northside of Evansville for the past 150 years. We are a small congregation (less than 150 members), but we have a large presence in outreach ministries and serving our neighbors, near and far. Relationships are valued at St. Peter’s, hospitality is practiced, and there is a strong sense of community.
The members of St. Peter’s are committed to strengthening our faith and growing in discipleship. We are committed to being a congregation where everyone is welcome. We want to always listen for the “still speaking voice of God” and we want to demonstrate a love of neighbor. That said, the last five years have taught us that we must be willing to change, to explore new ways to welcome people and to serve our community.
We are seeking a pastor who believes in the vitality of small churches, one who can help us imagine new pathways for growth, diversity, and inclusivity.
